Respectfully, your opinion as to whether a stylized drawing of a dog is more representative of one than another of the two related breeds of dogs, isn’t particularly relevant. As noted above, though, UConn has had at least one Samoyed as their live mascot as well.
That's fine, although it was someone else's opinion that started this discussion.
I own both stuff with both too. But in the postseason I strictly wore white dog stuff, much is the team did. You can’t argue with the results, right?
If we're talking "results", I'd argue that tbomk there was no Husky logo on the actual unis for the first 3 NCs. Maybe on the warmups.
The white husky was the logo for four of those natties (since we wore them this year) and the Sold blue wolf natty was with kids who have been developed under the white Husky logo.
Curious - where on any men's bball uni in past 25 years has UConn used a husky logo?
The throwbacks have the Samoyed on the shorts.
This year’s did. Google it if you’re curious.
I saw 99s did. And I saw 2014's did. I only saw 23 having a dog when they wore the throwbacks with the BE flag logo. Didn't see it on 2011 unis (which had the weird narrow U intersecting the C on the shorts). I'll concede 2023 wore the Samoyed duriing the NC game, but the regular uni just had HUSKIES down the leg. I'm not sure if 2004 had the Samoyed all year or just in the NC.
Not sure why they have to stretch an ultra-tight uniform over the furry costume and sometimes chonky person inside. What Not to Wear.
It is an abomination. Whoever approved that design should be fired. Looks nothing like the new logo so why not just keep the old white Jonathan? smdh
I could live with this. My issue with the current logo is I feel like it looks like it would be a logo option on 2Ks create a team page. I’m also pretty positive it has to do with my age and just being the logo of the teams I rooted for in the late 90s to mid 00s. The fact that it came with the death of the big east and my greatest fears coming true about the aac just further cemented my feeling about the new logo.
Pffft. Show me a good-looking mascot suit. They’re all stupid.
Kind of a stupid remark. It’s not a Husky!
The white dog is a husky just a different type. It’s not stupid for people to have a preference. People can enjoy them both (new or old) but they are still rocking UConn gear. Who cares…
There was a girl in there when I went to UConn. Do they still have women in the suit?
No idea. It used to be a guy when I was there.
I feel like there has to be a pretty good sweat reek in that thing.
